iPhone 5



Apple has come up with all new look for iPhone 5 and it is expected that its design would blow away everyone’s thinking. This new design of iPhone 5 would be stunning enough to captivate everyone’s eyes. There are many factors that will describe all new look for iPhone 5 and it is expected that this kind of change will take technical world in to different level. It would be completely different from all other models that are available today. What are some of the basic changes?

Obviously, the shape and size are different, but still, over all it hasn't really changed that much. About the only thing it has going for it is the sleek look, but they had that in the previous installments, too. Way to push the envelope on design! Having said that, though, it sounds like they intend to make the screen larger then the 4. In fact, its speculated that its going to be larger then the Androids, which isn't really all that important, but its more bragging rights, I suppose. Its a very 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' situation.

From what I've gathered, its looking like the iPhone 5 is going to release sooner then anticipated. Most likely, its due to the problems that the iPhone 4 had, and its simply Apple looking at recovering from the small hit in sales they took after the 4 hit street.

Still, while I may not be an Apple fan, I do have to give them credit. Its a sexy looking phone :D

The Atari 360?


While I'm not really into the modding scene, at least as far as consoles go, this is by far one of the coolest things I've ever scene. Clearly, I need to start paying more attention to the modding community, and especially Ben Meck.

First off, its pseudo portable, as it is essentially an Xbox 360 laptop. Second, who doesn't love anything with an Atari logo? Finally, its a classic finish on a next gen system. You get the gloriously sexy 70's wood grain dashboard look with the ability to play the newest releases.

I have to be honest, I can't think of a reason not to love this!

Smart Rice Cooker

Lightsabers not included :(
Well, those odd balls at Think Geek have done it again. If you're a lover of Asian cuisine, then I'm sure you'll love this as much as I do! From what the description tells, it adjusts the cooking temperature and time on the fly using an advanced 'logic' technology. I'm not sure how a machine logically decides how I want MY rice, but if it works the way it sounds, I'm definitely in.

What really caught my eye, which may be odd for a technology blog, is the heating dispersion it uses. One of the biggest pains is the rice burning to the bottom of the pot, not only because its a pain to clean, but what a waste of good food! It uses a spherically shaped heating element to cook the rice evenly on the top and bottom, so you get the right flavor and texture throughout the dish.

It has multiple functions(I mean, just look at all those buttons!), and can cook a variety of different grains. Including white rice, brown rice, oatmeal, sushi rice, and I'm sure you could probably figure out some others if you're talented in culinary arts. 

Plus, it has an LCD display. I mean, really whats not to love about it?

First post!

Well, I'm proud to announce the first official post of my blog! I've always been fascinated with the newest toys and gizmos (mainly thanks to my room mate), so I figured I would share my experiences, what I find through research and reviews, and even if I find something that just looks cool! Enjoy reading, everyone, and I hope you have as much fun following along as I do finding the Latest and Greatest!
